Michigan School Readiness Program  (MSRP)

The MSRP preschool is designed for 4 year old children.  Students attend half days Tuesdays through Fridays.

This program is funded by a special grant from the State of Michigan.  Children in this program must be 4 years of age by December 1.  Emphasis is placed on parent involvement and meeting the needs of the child.  The teacher conducts home visits and conferences twice during the school year.  Because the MSRP preschool is a state funded program, there are certain qualifications that must be met.  Our preschool is open to all children, regardless of race, nationality or creed, who may benefit from the program and who meet requirements for enrollment.

For more information, please contact Pere Marquette Elementary School at 845-3850.

Philosophy of the Ludington Schools' Preschool (MSRP)

We believe:

Children need a variety of age appropriate activities to allow them to develop socially, physically, emotionally, and intellectually.

Parents are an intregal part of the preschool experience.

Play is the child's "work."  preschool offers an enriched environment in which the child learns through play with peers and caring adults.

Each child is unique and special, developing in his own way and with his own needs. Children cannot and should not be pushed to perform academically before they are ready.

Young children need "hands-on" activities with a variety of materials.

Children need many opportunities to express themselves creatively through art, music, and language.
